adventure for them, as they had never done anything like it

before. To tat on the journey, they had bought some

bananas. They’d never eaten bananas before either.

they got on the train and were marveling at the speed. One

man decided to try his banana, but just as he was taking a

Bite the train entered a tunnel.
